Decompile plugin JARs with Vineflower; locate bundled JARs in Gradle cache; download ZIPs from Marketplace |
Decompilation (quick reference)
Always use Vineflower — not IntelliJ's bundled Fernflower. A local copy is at decompiled/vineflower.jar.
java -jar decompiled/vineflower.jar input.jar output-src/
See references/decompilation.md for full usage, bundled JAR paths, and Marketplace ZIP downloads.
Extension Point Explorer (quick reference)
Use the JetBrains Marketplace API to find plugins implementing a given extension point, get GitHub source search URLs or download plugin releases from the marketplace for decompilation.
See references/extension-point-explorer.md for step-by-step instructions.
